At Tokyo, British Ambassador Sir Robert L. Craigie objected to "indiscriminate" aerial attacks on Canton.

When Guest Sedgwick reported that "the liberal spirit is clearly in the ascendant'' in Franco Spain, he brought upon himself unmeasured condemnation from dozens of liberal pro-Loyalist writers. Smartly, Mr. Sedgwick returned the blows. During Editor Sed-wick's recent travels, his place has been taken by wiry, effervescent Editor Edward Augustus Weeks Jr. La.;t week, 40-year-old "Ted" Weeks assumed the hallowed title of editor-in-chief...
